Comments: 

This old Longmorn was just crying out to me from the top shelf in the whisky bar. I was not disappointed, it's so classically structured - sweetness and light on the nose, then more flavourful and robust (hello fresh bread!) on the tongue, and finishing in a more savoury, less sweet fashion. Wonderful.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
